Beautiful castle next to a lake! Jackie was very kind and helpful during our stay and made us a very tasty breakfast! The castle is pretty secluded and can be a bit difficult to find if you aren't used to the area, but it is definitely worth the effort! We stayed in the top tower bedroom which had views of the surrounding countryside.
The castle has been updated with plumbing and electricity of course, but by virtue of the building being hundreds of years old you'll want to keep in mind a few caveats such as water pressure, slightly chilly rooms and the occasional spider.
Overall it was a fantastic experience and definitely worth the opportunity to stay in such a beautiful and historic structure!

We enjoyed our experience at Ross Castle. Jackie was a lovely hostess and prepared a lovely dinner and breakfast for us. We stood in the bottom room of the tower which was a flight up on the spiral stair case. There were restless guests staying in the rooms above us which were pretty heavy footed in their room and on the stairs. Perhaps the stone wall amplified the sounds. Or maybe, it was the ghost of the Slasher returning from battle! Who knows! The bed was comfortable and I loved the tiles in the bathroom! Everything was tidy and clean. Beautiful surroundings and we can officially say we spent a night in a castle. I even caught a glimsp of the resident fox, Foxy!
I suggest bringing some bottled water or whatever you prefer for an after dinner drink. That was the only thing missing from our stay. Thankfully we had water bottles in our car. Take a side trip to Loughcrew Cairns, you won't be disappointed.

I am a Mum to two grown children, my husband Richard and I run an organic farm growing Oats and Beef on the shores of Lough Sheelin in County Cavan and Meath. I am also a part time interior designer and love to dabble in antiques. Running Ross Castle is something I love to do as I get to meet wonderful people from all over the world.
I really enjoy cooking and often cook for my guests. Couldn't live without clean air, countryside, family and fun company.
